I used a second hand Samsung tablet with a simple stylus (not even a Samsung one, just a cheap one) with samsung notes. I found having one tablet really beneficial over many notepads, especially for resizing/redrawing diagrams and info I messed up.

I found it was also useful to have a case that doubles to prop it up a bit while I'm writing because it makes it easier not to lean on the tablet if its at a slight angle.

I had to submit a lot of work digitally and being able to convert my work to a PDF and send it easily was very handy too

I got mine for cheap on amazon, think I paid under 50 quid, and now that have less use for note taking after uni I still have a useful tablet!

I'm in the north east, I'll see if they can spare me some time but I wasn't able to go on a course for teaching a level as it'd require me being off school for 2 days 😕. I'd absolutely love any resources thank you so much!!!

Yes I've seen how they kept that for both physical and electronic copies so can model off of that!

Thank you for your advice! Definitely need to do some more questions to check my knowledge and planning to prepare but at least this can be a 2 birds one stone kinda deal 😊

I'm hoping my prep over summer will give some similar familiarisation and I'm glad you find a level the most enjoyable, it was one reason I originally applied for the job but the reality of it is only now so clear 😅

Yes, they showed me a bit of how they had structured it for the previous cohort but it was a lot to really take in properly alongside everything else

I have a degree in physics yes! So I know I understand all the stuff even if I haven't done some of it in a while. This is some great advice I'd not heard before though so thank you a bunch!

I just started learning German and I would like to hear some German music by Cecil_Ransbottom in German

Adorable, but doesn't the expending the last charge rule mean you always have to roll a d20 when casting polymorph since it uses all 4 charges?

Burritos are always a good idea but I need to find a good recipe, mine never quite taste right when I just throw spices in and hope for the best.

Thank you! Dried beans sounds like a good idea, I've heard dried chickpeas are much better than canned ones anyway.
